Male bonding without brotherhood is a scarce relationship. In this western society, most men see other man as mere competition.
Typically, we're not viewed as the "nurturing gender" doesn't mean we lack that ability. We're just born to be assertive, logical, leaders, stoic and independent.
We're not supposed to show "emotions". We do have emotions, we just channel these emotions into something way greater instead of trivial. Like a purpose, goal, hobbies. We're rational, so we're the problem solvers. Can't remember the last I even cried, well, except for chopping onions
Doesn't count!
Don't get me wrong, being vulnerable is relieving af, manipulation isn't. Full of love, skeptical of trust.
Having male role models at a young age is essential. The world is a maze, full of twists and turns. We need male role models to help navigate through these barriers towards the next level. Life is like a video game. Never give up -- give in to the challenge and GO Harder. GO HAM!
As men, we have to build up our value. Women and Children are automatically valued in this world.
Role Models -- learning about mental health, women, finances, learning a skill, engagement -- building an individual will grant you more loyalty and respect than breaking an individual. Alas, we live in a insecurity society. Don't let that discourage you, society needs you more than you need them, we have a lot to offer.
Be the VICTOR and rise above!
